It depends on the nature of the resistance.

If a cop thinks a suspect is going for a weapon while they refuse orders to comply, why should he have to wait until the suspect actually points a gun at them before defending themselves and possibly other innocent bystanders around?

Abd cops don't shoot to kill, they shoot to stop the threat as quickly as possible.

When are y'all joining the team.and signing up for the police academy?

Except this guy did not resist arrest. Nor did he blink or not blink the way cops wanted, as a leftist poster upthread said sarcastically. (Leftists always go to false extremes when they can’t refute a point.)

In defiance of police orders, he went to retrieve something from his car. What in the world is so important to get that one ignores the repeated calls to halt, and opens his car door to get something while police have guns trained on you?

Yes and he did have a July 7th warrant for his arrest! Resisting arrest with a criminal record leads to a disastrous outcome! The vast majority of these cases the are replayed in the media to fit their narrative, the men had criminal records. That is why the police approach them differently, because they are criminals, unlike the Daniel Shavers or Tony Timpas law abiding citizens that were murdered by pigs.

Yes, liberals want the cop to wait until the criminal retrieves his weapon and points it, thus giving the cop less chance of survival by virtue of the 2-second delay. That’s because they are more concerned with the life of a violent criminal - if he’s black - than any police officer.

In the case being discussed, the cop waited until the last possible second without risking his own life. He didn’t shoot him as he was walking around the car. He didn’t shoot him when he opened the door (he was tugging on his shirt). It was only after the guy leaned in and was within a second of spinning around with a gun in his hand that the cop took action. It was a legitimate shoot.

But now people tell me that when young black man get shot while doing the same thing

Young black men don't get shot for doing that.

I don't understand what is a point of resisting arrest? Or ignoring police orders? An adult man should foresee the consequences of that foolish act.

Do you see why I would never agree with that?
Young black men don’t get shot for cursing them and walking away. You libs are trying to make this a racial thing to win an election, no matter how many cities are destroyed. In the case being discussed, the criminal was a direct threat to the cop’s life by defying orders to stop and instead went to retrieve something from his car.

It’s a black thing, according to the Smithsonian. “Respecting authority” is part of the culture of whiteness. Apparently.

And of course we know it isn't. Leftists will use anyone to further their cause, even if means slandering African Americans and sabotaging their prospects for success in life. Their only goal is chaos to burn down those 'bad capitalists'. What a bunch of evil morons
